Welcome to another installation of This Week in Spring! This week I’m in Chicago speaking to customers and then it’s off to Washington D.C., and New York City for Cloud Native meetups! I hope you’ll consider joining us at either event!

Time sure is flying! We’re darned close to 2016!

Anyway, as usual, lots to cover so let’s get to it!

I really like the looks of this Caffeine local cache. It uses a pretty interesting algorithm to ensure near optimal cache hits It already features a JSR 170 (JCache) integration which means using it could be as simple as configuring the JCache adapter along with Spring’s Cache abstraction.
